Chapter 10
"Julie we didn't realize you were awake" Pete said trying to charm her.
"We were trying to be quiet" Linc said sheepishly.
The captain saw she was trying to talk but her throat was still raw so it was hard. He told her he would explain but she needed to stay calm. If she started to get upset he would stop. He also explained that not everything may make sense. "Okay" she rasped. Pete and Linc sat on either side of her. Unconsciously Pete held her hand.
Ever watchful the captain started, "You have a slight case of amnesia. Don't worry about that. We will help you with that. Also it should go away on its own. We just the don't know when."
"Go on" she whispered.
" Do you remember Bo Graves or Vhallos?"
"Yes"
" They are both out of jail at the moment." The captain paused and took a deep breathe, this was going to be the hard part. " Bo is the one who put you here."
He stopped immediately seeing the look on Julies face. She was shocked and worried, Wasn't he suppose to be in jail? How did he get close enough to hurt me? Is he close to being caught? She had a thousand questions.
Seeing her getting ready to try an ask questions the captain said" Enough for today. It's getting late and you need your rest. You have a guard on your door. And only the doctor and certain nurses are allowed in here."
He could see she still was worried. Pete and Linc saw it too.
"I can stay if you want" Pete said.
"Me too" Linc chimed in.
The visible relief that washed over her was undeniable. She nodded her yes. She always felt much safer with them around. She still had questions but she was tired. She fell asleep with a small smile on her face.
That look on Julies face just about killed me. I love you Angel, and I promise you no one is ever going to get this close to you again. I know I said this before but seeing you here like this, it has me going through all kind of stuff. When you get better we are going to have to talk. And depending how it goes maybe even a little kissing.
Linc sat there and watched all the different emotions play across Pete's face. Man does he have it bad. I don't know why they just don't get together. After all this time you would think they would have. If I've ever seen two people who belong together it's these two. Maybe when Julies better I'll give them a nudge in the right direction.
"Pete, Linc time to get up" said the captain as he walked into the room.
"What time is it" they asked at the same time.
"Eight, Doctor Milton should be here soon to check on Julie" replied the captain.
"Good morning gentlemen" doc said as he walked in.
"Morning" they all replied.
" I need to see how Julie is progressing, please go to the waiting room. I'll meet you there shortly."
After examining Julie and talking with her for a few minutes, the Doc went to talk to the guys.
" Her recovery is coming along better then I expected. She can be moved tomorrow, but with strict instructions that she is too take it easy. She will need someone with her, till I can get there and do a checkup."
"Thank you doctor. We will make sure someone is with her, till you tell us otherwise." Replied the captain.
